Hi everyone!
As most of you probably know – our website team have been BUSILY working on stage 1 of our App over the past few months – BOTH will be available on Android and Apple
UPDATE Dec 27 – the App is now LIVE on Android phones and should be live on Dec 31 on Apple.
My brief to our developers was:

“We are all busy, time poor mum with little tolerance for things not working or things being complicated so make it simple, easy to use and USEFUL so when we have had no sleep, we can still work it out”.  

I am confident that they have met this brief and I hope you love it and are kind to us in your feedback 🙂

For those not quite aware of what is involved in App builds – it is an ENORMOUS job – especially for us with the 28 Day Challenge.
The APP
Our needs for the 28 Day Challenge App are quite complex too so it has made the creation of the App a complex process with a large team of web developers and designers working on it
App
As most of you also know I am personally 110% committed to ensuring that we continuously improve our support and offering to you and this is why I have been so passionate about bringing the App to you.

So without further ado – here is the App update

1) Version 1 is completed
2) The App is a FREE App for 28 Day Challenge members and is designed to complement the existing 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge

QUESTIONS!

Q) Can I access now?
The App was put into Apple for review last week. We now have to wait for Apple to approve. It can take 10 days but it can take 6. Apple are closed for reviews from 22 Dec to 29 Dec.
If we are not approved by Dec 22 we have to wait for Apple to approve on or after Dec 31. We will announce when it is approved and ready to go
Q) Will it be on Apple & Android?
Yes it will
Q) Why can’t I customise?
The full development was going to take 6 months, so I made the decision to release a read only version at the 3 month mark so you all had a version 1 to use on your mobiles. Yes it would be ideal if everything could launch at the same time but I didn’t want to wait until March to use the Challenge on my mobile when I cooked and exercised, so I figured you would be the same.
Q) So everything I amend when I customise will show on the App?
Yes it will – whatever you amend/enter on the site for stats, serve size, shopping lists etc will talk directly to the App and any changes you make will be reflected there.
Q) Do I need to pay for it?
No it is FREE to all 28 Day Challenge members
